Beschreibung

During embryonic development, unspecialized cell masses are transformed into complex tissues and organs through coordinated movements and interactions, driven by morphogenesis and cell fate acquisition. This study aims to elucidate how these processes are coordinated in space and time using the Xenopus mucociliary epithelium as a model. We will first provide an overview of the dynamics of cell fate acquisition, followed by an examination of the morphogenetic processes that accompany these fate decisions. Finally, we aim to develop a predictive model of cell fate acquisition by linking cellular behavior with cell fate decisions. This research will advance our understanding of the intricate relationship between cell fate and tissue morphogenesis, offering insights into the fundamental principles of tissue formation.
